How to Find a Live Webcam on Whatsupcams.com
Whatsupcams.com is a directory of live streaming webcams organized by location, and you can find a specific camera in three ways: type a place or keyword into the search box, browse the Latest and Featured sections on the homepage, or drill down through the country/region hierarchy shown on each listing. Once you open a camera's page, the live view plays there. This works for anyone looking for a real-time view of a named place — a beach, a ski resort, a town square — without needing to know the site's internal structure in advance.
Search by place or keyword
The homepage carries a search field labeled Search LIVE webcams. Enter a location, landmark, or theme and run the search.
- Use the place name as it appears in listings when you can. The site organizes cameras under a country / region / town path, so "Bibione" or "Kranjska Gora" will match more reliably than a vague description.
- If a broad term returns too many results, add the region or country to narrow it — for example, pairing a town with its country.
- If nothing matches, try a nearby larger town or the region name instead; small locations are often filed under the nearest well-known area.
Browse Latest and Featured
The homepage has two curated sections that are useful when you don't have a specific place in mind:
| Section | What it shows | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Latest | Recently added cameras | Seeing what's new, discovering places you didn't search for |
| Featured | Selected cameras, often scenic or notable viewpoints | High-interest views like mountain peaks or famous squares |
Both sections list cameras with their full location path, so you can click straight through to the live view.
Navigate by country and region
Every listing shows a breadcrumb-style location, for example:
- Slovenia / Upper Carniola / Bohinj — Webcam Pokljuka – Biathlon Stadium
- Italy / Veneto / Bibione — Bibione Promenade Webcam – Viale delle Costellazioni
- Croatia / Zagreb County / Zagreb - Center — Zagreb Zoo Live
Use these paths to move from a country down to a specific town. This is the most reliable method when you know roughly where a place is but not its exact listing name.
Open the camera page and watch
Clicking a listing opens that camera's detail page, where the live stream plays. From there you can confirm you have the right view — a beach, a ski slope, a town square — before deciding whether to keep it open or search for another.
If you can't find a camera
- Check the spelling against how the site labels the location (it uses local region names, not just country names).
- Try the English or local name of the place, since listings mix both.
- Fall back to browsing the country level and scanning the town list.
Hosting and advertising
Beyond watching, the site offers two other paths: Host a cam to share your own view, and Advertise on its webcams. There is also a Whatsupcams Premium page ("Your View Your Brand") for hosting-related branding. Details on cost and requirements are on those pages rather than the homepage.
